Farewell...I hardly knew ye

matthews · 09-07-2006, 02:40 PM

Well I've decided against a new Civic EX and decided to get a 2 year old Accord EX w/ leather...I wanted more for the money and that's what I'm getting! Thanks for all the help...

Farewell, matthews. Sounds like you made a pretty good purchase. I'm assuming cost was comparable to the Civic?

Yeah 04 Accord EX, leather, moonroof, 21k miles, $21k

Hopefully if you join an Accord forum, they will be an awesome bunch like us 8th Geners!!!

The only difference listed between the Accord you're buying and a new Si is the 21000 miles. Si can get leather

I could have sold ya a 98 Accord with 70k for 10

Well, turns out I woke up and realized that price for the Accord WAS crazy...

I didn't buy it, and I'm glad I didn't...SO, here's the *official* and *final* farewell:

Yesterday I got a new 2006 Subaru Impreza 2.5i (no no, NOT the WRX...too pricey and I like my gas 87 octane, not 93!). The one I got had a CAI, custom wheels/low profile tires, exhaust, and a spoiler (not the ugly STI one) added by the dealer...sticker price $18.9...Sold. sold sold sold. Even with the negative equity from my Titan I'm sold. Sure I'm back to where I started a year ago (owing USAA about $23k), but now at least I'm not taking it up the ass with 14mpg!!

See ya on the road, Civies! I'll make sure to waaaave from my AWD Scooby if you're stuck in snow or somethin'
